Formula to whole milk...

in Babies: 9 - 12 Months
My twins turn 1 on Oct 8th. Did anyone start mixing whole milk with formula before they turned 1? It's only a few weeks away so I was wondering if I should start adding whole milk to their bottles?

    My pedi said to start a couple weeks early to transition into it.

    I've already given DD a few cups of regular milk in between formula feedings.  She only really gets formula when she first wakes up and when she's ready to go to bed for the night.

    DS started having small amounts of whole milk when he was 11 months. I didn't mix it though. We just started with small amounts and slowly increased milk and decreased formula. He was totally on milk right at a year old.

    my pedi said after 11 months it was ok to give DD cow's milk. i gave it to her by itself just to see if she would like it or not. luckily, she loved it! she pretty much took to it cold turkey. whew!

    Our pediatrician said we would discuss the transition at LO's 12 month appointment. I haven't given her any whole milk yet, because I'm waiting to hear what she says about it.
